There is a biography called *Lord of Uraniborg* that's gotten good
reviews, haven't read it,  can't recall the author... let's fool with
the computer here...

        QB36.B8 T49 1990
        Thoren, Victor E.
        The Lord of Uraniborg : a biography of Tycho Brahe / Victor
                 E. Thoren ; with contributions by John R.
Christianson.
        Cambridge [England] ; New York : Cambridge University Press,
                 1990.
 
One of these days I'll get around to reading it.
